In such a situation, Holashtak is also one of the periods considered to be taboo for these auspicious works. Which starts exactly 8 days before Holika Dahan. That is, the period of 8 days before Holika Dahan is called Holashtak and according to experts no auspicious work is done in these 8 days. But in spite of this, this period proves to be very useful for the worship of God and the favored deities.

Holashtak will take up to 8 days

According to the Hindu calendar, every year Holika Dahan is performed on the last day of Falgun month i.e. on the full moon day of Falgun. But before this, every year Holashtak starts from the Ashtami date of Shukla Paksha of Falgun month and ends with Holika Dahan. According to the belief, during these 8 days, every auspicious work like marriage, shaving, home entry, house-vehicle shopping, Karnavedh, Janeu Sanskar etc. will be prohibited.

For this reason, the period of Holashtak will also start from 10 March 2022 and will end on 18 March 2022.

Keep these things in mind during Holashtak:-

According to religious beliefs, during the 8 days of Holashtak, King Hiranyakashipu, along with his sister Holika, had given many tortures to kill his son and Lord Vishnu's devotee Prahlad during the 8 days of Holashtak. For this, King Hiranyakashipu and his sister Holika made a big conspiracy to kill Prahlad by burning him in the fire on the last day, in which Holika herself died in the end. Therefore no auspicious work is done during these 8 days and the person is advised to do devotion to God only.
